Excellent Attorney

Helen is the best attorney my family has hired in years. She comes prepared and she's honest about your potential outcome in your case. She is 100% for her clients. My family will gladly keep this law firm on our payroll. I strongly recommend anyone who has a complex family law case to hire this ...law firm. Helen's prices are reasonable and she doesn't nickle and dime her clients as other attorneys my family has encountered did.

lazy, half-assed job for tip top dollar

helen sounds confident when spoken to however she did not show this in court, she did not ask the needed questions and even refused to bring up several times when my ex, the sheriff, and even the judge committed perjury on stand. she did not defend me when false accusations were made, stating they w...ere just accusations when the judge actually used it to justify his decree. she did not file even half of the papers that we needed to have filed in order to use in court and the ones she did file, she left out the most important page! there were even documents that were scanned in upside down. helen did nothing to protect my interests when i brought in proof of hidden income and bank accounts and even after the judge ordered a CPA to go through his affairs, she never ensured that this got done, just played email tag with the other attorney until it was too late to have the CPA which lost me everything. cost wayyy too much money for the job she did not even do.

not even worth 1 star

I paid her thousands to represent me in my divorce and the service she provided was worthless. Helen questioned my ex for 15 minutes at the most and left out several things that would have helped my case. My ex got everything she asked for and I even had to pay part of her lawyers bill. I would have ...been better off representing myself.

Personal Thoughts

Helen is nice but very costly for the services you get. So many factors in my case that should be brought up that never is and most of them are things I believe would help me in the long run. Helen is not very argumentative and tends to do things prim and proper although there's nothing wrong with th...at, I feel in my case I should have sought out a more go get "er" attorney. However Helen does stick by the client that hired her and not the opposite person involved with the case, I have to give her major props for that.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I worked with Helen on a matter where competing cases had been filed in both Iowa and Arizona. My goal was to get the Arizona action dismissed. Helen was very effective in obtaining the Iowa emergency custody orders that I needed to force the return of our mutual client's children back to Iowa. She was on the ball and made my job easy!"
